text division

Postby blaf » Sat Apr 26, 2008 12:35 pm

Hi all,
I have little problem.

I have text:
Scenario:
\begin{enumerate}
\item some text
\item some other text
\end{enumerate}

Sometimes Tex prints text Scenario: at the end of the page and the enumeration on the next page.
How can I tell him to give the Scenerio text to the next page?

thanx blaf

Insert a \newpage command right in front of it or put a minipage environment around that group.

Hi blaf,

welcome to the LaTeX Community board!
I want to mention one alternative to Thorstens solutions, because inserting a \newpage may be not so good if the pages can still change, whereas the minipage environment does not allow any pagebreak inside that group, so the text (enumerate) may reach into the bottom.
I recommend to use the needspace package. You tell LaTeX with \needspace{...} how many space is needed. If there's not enough free space left on the page then a pagebreak will be inserted, otherwise not. Example:
\usepackage{needspace}
...
\needspace{3\baselineskip}
Scenario:
\begin{enumerate}
\item some text
...
\item some other text
\end{enumerate}

so it works fine but there is a side effect

i have latex code:
\subsection{Správa èíselníkù}
%Následující text se zabývá popisem funkcí týkajících se správy èíselníkových tabulek.
Protože jsou všechny scénáøe velmi podobné scénáøùm uvedeným v sekci~\ref{subsec:spravaUzivatelu}
tak zde nebudou popisovány. Jedinou vyjímku tvoøí pøípad UC~6.1.2:~Vytvoøení/editace lékaøe
a~proto bude dále popsán. Základní pøehled poskytuje obrázek~\ref{fig:images/ciselnikyUC}.
\fig[width=140mm]{images/ciselnikyUC}{Use case diagram - Správa èíselníkù}
\\\\
% UC 6.1.2:~Vytvoøení/editace lékaøe
\needspace{1\baselineskip}
{\bf UC 6.1.2:~Vytvoøení/editace lékaøe}\label{par:editaceLekareUCDesc}\\
Popis: Umožòuje vytváøet resp. editovat nové resp. existující lékaøe.\\
Oprávnìní: Pøístup je poskytnut uživateli disponujícímu oprávnìním Spravovat èíselníky.
\needspace{1\baselineskip}Scénáø:
\begin{enumerate}
\item Zobrazení formuláøe pro editaci lékaøe.
\item V pøípadì existujícího lékaøe jsou pole formuláøe vyplnìna údaji o~lékaøi.
\item Vyplnìní/zmìna údajù o~lékaøi.
\item Zobrazení seznamu ústavù.
\item Výbìr ústavu pro lékaøe.
\item Kliknutí na tlaèítko Uložit.
\item Kontrola zadaných dat.
\item Uložení informací o lékaøi.
\item Zobrazení seznamu lékaøù.
\end{enumerate}
\needspace{1\baselineskip}
Vyjímky:
\begin{itemize}
\item V pøípadì chybnì vyplnìných údajù (napø. nevyplnìní povinné položky) je zobrazen stejný formuláø s~chybovou zprávou.
\end{itemize}

problem is that the bold text UC 6.1.2:~Vytvoøení/editace lékaøe and Scénáø: are intended. They should be aligned the same way as texts Popis: and Vyjimky

do you know where is the problem?

i've attached pdf file with the text

thx blaf

Use a \noindent command to prevent undesired indentations.
\noindent\textbf{UC 6.1.2:~Vytvoøení/editace lékaøe}\label{par:editaceLekareUCDesc}

By the way, the \bf command is obsolete, you can use \textbf{...} as I suggested, ot the global switch \bfseries. Further information can be found in l2tabu.

now it works as I want, thx

I already have one other question

I have table and I'd like to merge several cells in one column
so it should look like:

--------------------------
|sdfsd|asdasdasdasda|
|sdfsd|-----------------|
|sdfsd|asdasdasdasda|
--------------------------

can i do that?

Hi blaf,

you could use \multicolumn.

On the other hand, to produce an entry that spans over saveral rows, you can use the \multirow command provided by the multirow package.

A little example of \multicolumn and \multirow:
\documentclass{report}
\usepackage{multirow}

\begin{document}

\begin{tabular}{|c|c|}
  \hline
  \multicolumn{2}{|c|}{Entry spanning several columns}\\ \hline
  column 1a & column 2a \\
  column 1a & column 2a \\ \hline
\end{tabular}

\vspace{1cm}

\begin{tabular}{|c|c|}
  \hline
  \multirow{3}{*}{Entry spanning several rows}
  & column 1b \\ 
  & column 2b \\
  & column 3b \\ \hline
\end{tabular}

\end{document}
